Wednesday blood work
Dad went to have the dressing on his picc line changed and have blood work done today and the blood work came back really good. The nurse is amazed at how good and consistent his blood work has been! So he's doing excellent with that! His hemoglobin is just slightly low so I'll start loading him up on high iron foods like organic spinach, red meat, raisins, etc.

great news! keep it up, dad. i have a recipe you can use:
ReplyDelete1 pkg organic spinach
1 beef filet
4 oz of raisins
1 egg
4 oz of orange juice
Add ingredients to blender and blend for 2 hours. Remove and serve in frosted mug.
dude...that's gross matt!!
ReplyDeleteAlso...does this mean we're going to have some super delicious Nebraska steaks tomorrow?!?!?!
Matt...thanks anyway for the idea but I'm out of orange juice so I think I'll pass. Sara...what we're having tomorrow is a beef steak and portobello mushroom ragout with spinach served over spinach noodles. Sounds like plenty of iron to me!!
ReplyDeleteI think some yummy liver and onions would be in order. Or how about some bone meal?
ReplyDeleteAcai Smoothie (but don't give it to Sara, she may wind up with a acai face mask). It's got 5-7 milligrams of iron per 100 grams ... and super tasty!
ReplyDeleteVery funny, Shanna!
ReplyDeleteMaybe Laura should come to Lincoln and cook some liver and share it with me.
